Hi all,
My cat, Brownie, has CKD and has lost her appetite (we are working on this ) but until then, we are syringe feeding her with a plastic syringe.
I feed her on one side of her mouth, and that's where I noticed some dark brown/black clumps (see pics). I made the mistake of brushing through the clumps without wetting them or anything and it pulled her fur out
Does anyone have similar experience and solutions for this? We have made an appt with her vet because my family member is very paranoid about it but I suspect it's a combination of cat acne due to the plastic syringe mixed with the fact that her food sometimes drips out of her mouth and we didn't think to clean it because we thought her licking her chops was enough.
Please let me know if you've seen something similar!
Thank you!
